Classical guitar with a plywood top
The guitar arrived with a lifting bridge and a very warped top.
Turns out the outer layer of the plywood was severed behind the bridge.

A larger bridge to span the gap was not on the budget so i installed extra braces to reinforce the area.

Worked great and the guitar holds the string tensions nicely.

Glad to see one of my own guitars back for a setup.

This particular guitar has seen many gigs thanks to my good friend .b5
Its an honor for me to have a guitar I made in the hands of such a talented musician and making incredible music.
Check out his awesome band .musique

Martin 0-28 in for a bridge repair.
The bridge was previously repaired but didn't hold so a new bridge was in order.
It was a pleasure to work on such a beautiful guitar

Gonna try to get back into posting for visibility. Wish me luck.

This country western got the works.
New bridge, full refret, new nut and saddle, reinforcement patch for the soundboard.

The guitar got a new lease on life and is ready for many more years of playing.

Still in the process of moving. I've been living amidst boxes and clutter for a little while but this is the last corner of the house that looks nice.

The latest work at the old workshop.
This is a new model of classical guitar.
The 3 ply laminated sides came out great and I'm really pleased with the shape of it.
Work on this guitar and another one just like it will resume after the move is done.
